The panchang components are as favourable as
their lords and the Moon. It is very important that the Moon and panchang lords
are well disposed for the event. A favourable Vara/Tithi/Nakshtra/yoga is one
factor which neutralizes blemishes.
Ancient Muhurta texts have given specific
guidelines for beginning many activities, of which for many activities specific
guidelines are given but for many only a favourable nakshtra is said
appropriate.
Basic principles to be followed while selecting
a Muhurta
Age
and Time: some activities (samskara) of life to be
performed at specific age or specific time of year. For these activities rest
of the factors become secondary so one has to select an appropriate moment
during that certain period only.
Ayana:
A
Vedic year is divided into two Ayana Dakshinayan (also called as night of God)
and Uttarayan (day of God). Activities that have a significant lifelong
influence are best said to be performed during Uttarayan.
Masa:
For
the events that have life-long importance such as marriage, it is well worth
insuring that an appropriate lunar month to be chosen and also ensure the lord
of that month is well disposed. If not possible then select a month in which
the full Moon falls in a Nakshtra that is favourable for the event.
Paksha:
Some
events are best performed in either Shukla Paksha or Krishna Paksha. It is
worth performing these events in the recommended Paksha. Important is other
Muhurta factors are favourable and well disposed.
Nakshtra:
Nakshtra
is the most event specific component of Panchang. Just ensure the Moon and
Nakshtra lord are well disposed. A favourable Nadika or Tithyamsa can make up
for the unfavourable Nakshtra. Also full Moon falling in a favourable Nakshtra
can support the event under an unfavourable Nakshtra as long as the lord of the
full Moon`s Nakshtra is well disposed.
If the Yoga formed by the Nakshtra is
auspicious, the Nakshtra gains some favour. If the Yoga formed by the Nakshtra
is unfavourable then the Nakshtra loses all the favour.
Tithi:
A
favourable Tithi is very important. Any Tithi except for one of the Dark Tithis
(the 1st Tithi of Shukla Paksha and the 11th 12th
13th 14th and 15th Tithis of Krishna Paksha)
taking part in an auspicious Vara/Tithi/Nakshtra yoga becomes favourable even
if otherwise it is unfavourable. On the other hands any favourable Tithi taking
part in an inauspicious Vara/Tithi/Nakshtra yoga will loose all favour.
Vara:
An
event will fulfil its goal readily if the Vara is favourable. Most important
always is that lord of the Vara is well disposed. However if a Vara is
unfavourable but taking part in an auspicious Vara/Tithi/Nakshtra yoga, then
the Vara will have the vital strength to insure the ready success of the event.
If the Vara is not taking part in a favourable yoga then Hora and to a lesser
degree the Nadika of a planet favourable for the event can do.
Yoga:
Most
of the 27 Yogas are favourable. But if the lord of the Yoga is afflicted, it
will have negative impact on the event. If a favourable Yoga cannot be chosen
then ensure the lord of the Yoga is well disposed and under the influence of
strong benefics.
Karana:
Specific
Karanas are mentioned in ancient texts for specific events. The Karana is very
important and not to be overlooked. Always select a favourable Karana.
Tara:
Tara
is very important and it is always well worth sacrificing any other Muhurta
component, except for the Panchang components and the Vara/Tithi/Nakshtra Yoga
in order to have favourable Tara.
Favourable Tara insures that the individual can
benefit from the favourable astrological influences, while unfavourable Tara
can brings out the worst possible results and makes it difficult for the native
to benefit from the favourable factors.
It is better to perform the event under the 22nd
(Vainashik) or 27th Nakshtra than under a Vipat, Pratyak and Vadha
Nakshtra. Among Vipat, Pratyak and Vadha Nakshtra the Pratyak Nakshtra are less
unfavourable.
Hora:
Hora
is similar in effect to the Vara and should thus be of one of the planet that
rules the favourable Vara for the event. Disposition of lord of Hora is equally
important. An unfavourable Hora can be compensated for to some degree, by a
favourable Vara or by the lord of the Nadika being a favourable planet.
Nadika:
the
Nadika which is known by a Nakshtra but ruled by a planet, brings the Nakshtra
and Vara together into one. Choose the Nadika of planet whose Vara is
favourable for the event and the Nakshtra after which it is named and that is
also favourable for the event. Additionally, the result of the Nadika on the
specific Vara should not be adverse and is best if it is in line with intended
goal. If the lord of Nadika is not favourable then a favourable Hora or Vara
can compensate to some degree. If the Nakshtra after which the Nadika is named
is not favourable then make double sure that the Nakshtra of Moon is favourable
for the event.
Tithyamsa:
The
Tithyamsa is very important the unfavourable Tithyamsa or Dur Muhurtas
which
are one of twenty one Mahadoshas, must be avoided. Preferably the Nakshtra to
which Tithyamsa correlates should be favourable. A favourable Tithi can
compensate for the unfavourable Tithyamsa But not for the Dur Muhurtas.
Lagna:
For
most events suitable Lagnas are given. Along with this Lagna of a benefic
planet is always preferable, though much greater importance is given to the
arrangement of the planets in the Bhavas. Never choose a particular lagna at
the expense of sacrificing any planetary positions. Occasionally a particular
Lagna which is unsatisfactory should be avoided unless planetary configuration
from that Lagna is very favourable.
Navamsa
Lagna: General rule is the Navamsa Lagna should be of
one of the planets whose Vara is favourable for the event should be followed.
Bhavas:
The placement of the planets in the Bhavas is much more important than the
Lagna chosen. Almost any Lagna will be quite satisfactory if the planets are in
favourable Bhavas. Benefics are favourable in angles and trines and malefics in
3rd, 6th and 11th. If primary Muhurta factors
are favourable and most importantly their lords well disposed, other
afflictions in the Rashi chart cannot cause notable harm.
Grahas:
Some
events need certain planets to meet special considerations which are very
important and should always be followed.
These special considerations are generally only
slightly less important than having favourable Panchang components,
well-disposed Panchang lords, a favourable Vara/Tithi/Nakshtra Yoga, favourable
Tara and absence of Shunya, Vishanadi or any of the Twenty-One Mahadoshas.
Grahas includes the affliction of Jupiter and Venus,
which should be avoided in performing all acts of long-term importance.
Gochara:
It
is desirable to have certain planets in favourable Gochara position from
the natal Moon. But never worth sacrificing other important Muhurta factors or
a Rashi chart with a favourable planetary placements.
Miscellaneous:
The
event will meet success so long as
the Panchang components are favourable, the Panchang lords are well-disposed,
the Vara/Tithi/Nakshtra Yoga is favourable, the Tara is favourable, the
twenty-One Mahadoshas, Shunya, and Vishanadi are avoided and there is some
factors present which neutralizes blemishes.
Combinations:
Classical texts often give combination of planetary permutations that support
the activity. These combinations when present go a long way in strengthening
the Rashi chart and supporting success. They are also capable of neutralize
blemishes that may be present and can be treated as other factors that
neutralize adversities. Anju Anand
